Old Cairo: Saliba Street, Citadel & Civilization Museum

Explore Old Cairo on a journey through historic streets, Islamic architecture, museums, and the Citadel, bringing together some of the city’s most distinctive cultural landmarks in a single experience.
Why Explore Old Cairo?
Because Cairo’s story isn’t found in a single monument. It’s found in the layers between them.
There is a side of Cairo that you can only discover when you slow down and walk through its historic streets. Old Cairo is that side.
This experience takes you through Saliba Street and a collection of landmarks that reveal different chapters of the city’s cultural and architectural heritage—from the Gayer-Anderson Museum and Ibn Tulun Mosque to Sultan Mosque, the Citadel, and the Civilization Museum.
What makes the journey special is the contrast.
One moment, you’re surrounded by historic architecture and quiet streets. The next, you’re standing inside a landmark that opens another chapter of Egypt’s story.
